Can Erik Van Rooyen Keep His Consistency Going In Florida?
6 months agoKeeping the momentum going from week to week has been the pitfall in Erik Van Rooyen's career. He's no stranger to sprinkling in a top-10 performance between a string of missed cuts, or have things going great for a few weeks before a massive letdown that lasts for a month or more. That roller coaster makes him a tough pick almost every week, and his solid start to the season begs the question: When is the cliff coming? EVR currently ranks 17th in strokes gained off the tee (.581), 48th in strokes gained on approach (.404), and 56th in strokes gained in putting (.280), so forecasting a slump won't be found in the statistics. However, his history at PGA National is not great by any stretch, with a best finish of T60 in 2021. If a fall from form is coming, this week could be it.
